Do you think the good old days have gone and it’s more organised gangs or are there still the rogue privateers? I jacked when the Chinese got heavily involved. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SheepChaser 8,091 Posted December 2, 2021 Report Share Posted December 2, 2021 I’m trying to think of peoples names now. Philip Sparrow hawk ? and there was another guy who used to bring it from Nepal. I swear he ended up writing a book but I can’t remember what it was called. King of Nepal or something Quote Link to post Share on other sites
